Dynasty Summons: Low-key Hegemony

Chapter 248

At the foot of the mountain, bandits in Liangshanzhai happily carried their loot and lined up the mountain in a long line.

He Yong, Zhou Changqing and the others also expressed joy, not to mention the amount of food in the barracks, the weapons in the barracks alone were enough to arm the entire cottage, and there was still some leftovers, especially when Huang Ke and the others brought out more than a dozen sets of bright full-body armor from the barracks. At that time, the eyes of all the leaders were hot.

Three miles away from Liangshanzhai's cordon, a group of people were looking in surprise at Liangshanzhai, who had won a big victory and was about to go back in the distance.

Standing at the front was the talented Xu Qingshan. After he learned that Lu Junyi had sent troops to attack Liangshanzhai, he felt overjoyed that this was the best time to conquer Liangshanzhai.

When he was on the way here, he thought about the scene where he conquered Liangshan before Lu Junyi arrived, and when Lu Junyi arrived, he proudly left Liangshanzhai with integrity.

But he didn't expect Liang Shanzhai to give him such a big surprise that he could deal with the officers and soldiers who came.

Xu Qingshan became more eager to subdue Liangshanzhai. It seems that Liangshanzhai not only has a Tianwu realm, but also many capable people, who should be used by him.

"Let's go, follow me to visit Liangshanzhai."

Xu Qingshan waved his sleeves, beckoning his followers to follow him to the Liang village.

"Yes."

A group of followers followed closely behind Xu Qingshan.

........................

"Brother Gongming, brother Gongming, someone came to the gate of the cottage and said they came to visit you."

In the Juyi Hall, Song Jiang who had just sat down had not had time to drink a sip of hot tea when he heard Niu Geng coming to report.

He was still calculating the use of the spoils of this battle. When he heard the news, his heart moved and he raised his head.

"Brother Gongming, just after we won the battle, someone dared to come to visit. I'm afraid the person who came was of extraordinary status."

"Well, what's the use, Tie Niu, you go with me."

Song Jiang got up and was ready to go to the gate of the village to meet the guests.

"Yes." He Yong and Zhou Tie replied at the same time.

In front of the gate of the village, Xu Qingshan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the bandits in the village who were piling up war supplies, he didn't care at all about the bandit guards watching them vigilantly at the gate of the village.

When Song Jiang came with He Yong, Zhou Tie and his party and saw Xu Qingshan, who was dressed gorgeously and had a hint of arrogance, his heart moved.

With a flash in his eyes, He Yong's mind was running wildly, trying to figure out the identity of this person.

"When a distinguished guest comes to visit, there is a long way to welcome them, and there is a long way to go to welcome them."

The gate of the cottage was wide open, Song Jiang crossed his hands and walked all the way smiling.

Seeing Song Jiang greet him politely, the proud Xu Qingshan also showed a smile:
"I heard that the owner of Song Village in Liangshan Village is a first-class hero in the Liancang Mansion. He paid a special visit to him, so it's a lot of trouble."

"Haha, please!" Song Jiang stretched out his hand to invite Xu Qingshan to enter the cottage.

"Please!" Xu Qingshan did not refuse, and entered side by side with Song Jiang.

The two chatted happily all the way, and quickly came to the Juyi Hall.

In the Juyi hall, Yang Zhi, Zhou Changqing and other three masters were already waiting again.

"This is the well-known Lord Yang of Liangshan Village."

As soon as Xu Qingshan entered the Juyi hall, he was immediately attracted by Yang Zhi, who had a special appearance but a fierce aura.

"Well, then who are you? What is the purpose of coming to Liangshan Village?"

Yang Zhi's face was calm, without the slightest hint of politeness, while speaking, the door of Juyi Hall was closed, only Xu Qingshan and his party, Song Jiang, He Yong, Yang Zhi and other seven people were left present.

Xu Qingshan looked around at the vigilant eyes of Yang Zhi and the others, smiled slightly, his face straightened, revealing a powerful aura.

"My official is Xu Qingshan, Governor of Cangyang County."

"The sheriff of Cangyang County?"

Zhou Changqing, Ye Zhengwu and others looked shocked, and even Yang Zhi and Song Jiang's eyes shrank.

Liang Shanzhai was also close to Cangyang County, so he naturally heard about the new governor of Cangyang County.

Xu Qingshan was very satisfied with everyone's expressions, and the followers behind him also raised their heads, showing a little pride.

"It turned out to be Mr. Xu, please sit down, please sit up." Song Jiang seemed to be in a daze, and he took a breath before realizing it, and quickly asked Xu Qingshan to sit up.

"Haha, Village Master Song please too."

Xu Qingshan was not polite, walked directly to the first place on the left, and sat opposite Yang Zhi.

Song Jiang did not sit on top, but chose to sit next to Xu Qingshan.

Seeing this, Xu Qingshan smiled even deeper.

Everyone also sat down one after another. He Yong's eyes were shining brightly. After obtaining Xu Qingshan's identity, a surge of excitement surged in his heart, and he had already guessed Xu Qingshan's intention.

Not only him, Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu were also faintly excited.

A majestic county guard came to visit the cottage, not to recruit them, what else could he do.

"This official is straightforward, and I don't want to play charades anymore. I came here this time to recruit Liang Shanzhai." Xu Qingshan glanced at the micro-expressions of everyone, and smiled openly to Song Jiang. "When I took office as the governor of Cangyang County, I heard that the heroes in Liangshanzhai were unparalleled in their benevolence and righteousness. They often defended the people against injustices. They were well-received by the people. In my heart, I lamented the deeds of Zhaizhu Song. I felt that Zhaizhu Song should not be left behind For Kou."

"Knowing that the Yinghui County guards sent troops to suppress you indiscriminately, I have a heart for all heroes, so I couldn't wait to come here, but I didn't expect that without my action, you Liangshanzhai had already repelled the Yinghui County officers and soldiers. It's really gratifying."

He Yong's eyes moved, listening to Xu Qingshan's tone, and Xu Qingshan came to recruit Liang Shanzhai, his mind flashed, and he had a vague guess.

Could it be that the new sheriff of Cangyang County didn't deal with Lu Junyi?

When Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu heard Xu Qingshan's praise of them, their expressions were faintly agitated, and they looked at Xu Qingquan very eagerly, wishing they could immediately agree to Master Xu's order.

It was nothing for them to join Liangshanzhai before. With Yang Zhi in the Heaven Martial Realm, they can be regarded as a first-class force.

But now Liangshanzhai has offended the major families in Yinghui County, and that Lu Junshou is even the arrogance of the peak of Tianwu Realm. Once he leads his troops, how can Liangshanzhai resist.

Now Xu Qingshan, who is also the governor of the same county, recruits them and can also eat the emperor's food. What kind of opportunity is this?
This is no such opportunity even if the ancestral grave is blown up!

But He Yong, Yan Xia, and Zhou Tie looked at Song Jiang.

Song Jiang's smile gradually disappeared, and his face became extremely serious.

"Master Song, what do you think?" Xu Qingshan asked Song Jiang with a smile, with full confidence in his words.

The Juyi Hall fell silent, quietly waiting for Song Jiang to speak.

Song Jiang bowed his head and remained silent.

A pretty handsome man behind Xu Qingshan didn't agree immediately when he saw Song Jiang. He narrowed his eyes and said in a very gentle tone:
"Master Song Village, our county guard appreciates the heroes of Liangshan Village very much, knowing that Liangshan Village is in danger of being destroyed, we rushed to rescue them in our busy schedule, which can be said to be full of sincerity.

Although Liangshanzhai won a big victory in this battle, this battle put Liangshanzhai in a more dangerous situation. It is impossible for any county guard to endure the defeat of his soldiers by bandits. County guard Lu will definitely carry out the next attack , when the time comes, the families that have already suffered defeats will definitely wash away their shame this time, and I'm afraid..."

The man didn't say the last sentence, but everyone knew exactly what he wanted to say.

Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu nodded quickly, and Ye Zhengwu couldn't wait to say:

"Yes, Village Master, Mr. Xu personally came to recruit for the safety of our Liangshan Village. He is full of sincerity. How can we live up to Mr. Xu's kindness."

As soon as Ye Zhengwu's words came out, Xu Qingshan looked over, and Ye Zhengwu was overjoyed. When Xu Qingshan revealed his identity, he was sure that he must take refuge in the Governor of Cangyang.

As a master master, I accept Master Xu's solicitation. If I can gain Master Xu's attention and devote my allegiance to Master Xu, I may become the lord of a city in Cangyang County in the future.

But apart from Ye Zhengwu and Zhou Changqing, He Yong, Yan Xia, Zhou Tie and Yang Zhi all looked calmly at Song Jiang and waited for his decision.

Seeing this scene, the handsome man behind Xu Qingshan raised his heart towards Song Jiang again.

It seems that this Song Jiang is indeed a capable person!
The same is true for Xu Qingshan, who has a higher intention of recruiting in his heart, and his subordinates are in great need of this kind of talent.

Xu Qingshan used to be known as a great talent in Yujing Academy, so he was naturally very smart, but there are many smart people in Kyoto, he is not outstanding in strategy, and can only quickly stand out by virtue of bravery.

Xu Qingshan knew in his heart that although all the families in Cangyang County were willing to cooperate with him, it was because he had not encroached on their interests. But there are not enough talents.

So he needs to recruit loyal talent.

In Cangyang County, even if there are great talents who come to seek refuge, he will not reuse them. After all, no one knows which family those great talents come from.

The talents he can use now are only a few talents brought from the capital, and the handsome man behind him is a talented scholar from Yujing Academy, Liu Shulun.

As for Xu Qingshan's thoughts, no one else was interested, and Song Jiang, who was watching everyone, finally spoke.

"Master Xu, I am very grateful that you came to the rescue in time, and this man's analysis is reasonable. Although Liangshan Village has won a big victory, it will also face a greater crisis. If you do not agree to Master Xu's solicitation, Some don't know how to flatter."

Xu Qingshan was overjoyed when he heard the words.

"but……"

The most fearful thing in negotiation is to say no.

Xu Qingshan and Zheng Shulun's hearts moved.

Song Jiang showed a worried but determined expression: "If you want to conquer Liangshanzhai, Master Xu, you must agree to the next condition, otherwise I would rather take Liangshanzhai away to Yinghui County than surrender to you."

"Oh, what conditions!" Xu Qingshan narrowed his eyes, feeling a little dissatisfied in his heart. As the head of a county, he was already sincere enough to come here to recruit him in person, so he still wants to negotiate conditions with him?

Song Jiang saw Xu Qingshan's dissatisfaction, but his tone was very firm:

"Master Xu, our whole Liangshan Village was built by a group of poor refugees. They had to go to Liangshan Village because of unavoidable difficulties. If we surrender to Your Excellency, I will never leave them alone. May I ask you how to arrange them."

Xu Qingshan's dissatisfaction dissipated immediately when he heard the words, "Haha, don't worry, I will naturally accept it together. Are you afraid that they will be excluded and bullied in Cangyang County?"

Song Jiang heaved a sigh of relief, stood up, bowed to Xu Qingshan and said: "Master Xu clearly learned that we are bandits after all, and we are easily excluded and looked down upon in the eyes of all families and even the common people, so I implore Master Xu to treat them equally, Give them a clean identity."

Seeing this, Xu Qingshan admired Song Jiang even more in his heart, and quickly got up to support Song Jiang.

"Master Song, don't worry, I will directly recruit all the brothers in Liangshan Village into the guards of the county city, and I have already planned to make Yang Zhai the post of captain of the county city!"

"Really?" Song Jiang was overjoyed.

"Of course!" Xu Qingshan said firmly, looking at Yang Zhi, expressing that he valued it very much.

"Master Xu, besides Brother Yang, we in Liangshan Village also have brothers like Brother Zhou, Brother Yan, and Brother He, all of whom are talented people."

When everyone saw Song Jiang introducing them in front of Xu Qingshan, knowing that Song Jiang wanted them to be reused by Xu Qingshan, a warm current gushed out of their hearts.

Brother Gongming!

Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu even showed guilt on their faces.

And Zheng Bolun looked at Song Jiang with admiration, and not long after he came to Cangyang Mansion, he heard that there was a hero in Yinghui County, known as Timely Rain Song Jiang, who was unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, generous and loving to his brothers.

When I saw it today, it really lived up to its reputation.

Song Jiang never thought about his status after he took refuge in an adult, but he always cared about his brother's situation. No wonder so many people took the initiative to take refuge in Song Jiang.

"Master Song Village, don't worry, I am in urgent need of talents, and I will definitely use them again." Xu Qingshan expressed his satisfaction. The combined strength of the entire Liangshan Village is comparable to the top forces in Cangyang County. With them joining, I don't need to be afraid Turned against the Cangyang County family.

Song Jiang looked at Zhou Tiedao:
"Tie Niu, go and call all the leaders of Liangshan Village to the Juyi Hall to meet Master Xu."

"Yes."

Zhou Tie took the order to leave.

"Master Xu, please take the seat!" Song Jiang bowed his hands respectfully to Xu Qingshan, motioning for him to sit at the top seat, indicating that Liang Shanzhai had surrendered.

"Haha, Don't worry, Village Master Song. Later, I will send a letter to Lu Junyi, governor of Yinghui County, telling you that you are mine."

Xu Qingshan's hearty laughter resounded through the Juyi Hall.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!"

Everyone in Liangshanzhai thanked them wholeheartedly.

………………

In the morning of the second day, when Liang Shanzhai was packing up and preparing to follow Xu Qingshan back to Cangyang County, Yinghui County finally received the news of Liu Hongzhi's defeat!
In the government office, Lu Junyi is receiving two distinguished guests.

Huang Jingyi, the Great Elder of Ice and Snow Pavilion, and Liu Xuekun, the Great Elder of Tianlei Pavilion.

A middle-aged woman, an old man.

"Report to my lord, Liu Duwei was raided by Liang Shanzhai in the early hours of last night, and he was defeated!"

Just as they were chatting happily, a messenger rushed in to report.

"what!"

Lu Junyi, who was originally polite, stood up suddenly when he heard the news reported by the messenger soldier. Huang Jingyi and Liu Xuekun also showed surprise.

"Didn't the Lin family send a Heavenly Martial Realm Great Elder there? What about him?"

"Elder Lin Gao was beheaded on the spot by Yang Zhi, Liu Duwei died, Liang Shanzhai burned the barracks and caused chaos in the army..."

When the reporter was explaining the situation of the battle, Liu Xuekun, the great elder of Lei Ge, suddenly stood up, and the aura of the peak of Tianwu Realm exploded, causing the entire lobby to sink by three points. He stared at the reporter and said:

"What's wrong with Liu Hongzhi!"

Liu Hongzhi, son of Liu Xuekun!
